Cobra FV Sampling Solution

Designed to provide a more efficient fixed volume sampling system, the Cobra FV liquid sampler offers the greatest level of reliability and ease-of-use yet. All of the units use the Cobra-designed FLO-THRU sampling valve, facilitating easy regulation by ensuring sufficient time for air and other gases to be expelled. A variety of accessories are available – from needle purge to cooling coils – so that the sampler can be customized to suit the specific conditions at your facility.

The Cobra FV is specifically designed to ensure the operator takes the highest quality fixed volume sampler through the simplest and most reliable process possible. The sample valve allows each sample to be extracted quickly and easily while simultaneously purging the assembly with Nitrogen, thus ensuring the cleanest possible sample is taken. The system can also be adapted to facilitate automatic sample extractions or composite samples.

Cobra C Sampling Solutions

The Cobra C gas and liquid sampler makes the task of collecting representative samples from gas and light liquid hydrocarbon applications simpler and safer. Designed with safety for both the operator and environment in mind, the Cobra C offers a low-maintenance solution to sampling requirements. It also offers emissions-free sampling, with no spills and zero VOC emissions, keeping both pollution and sample contamination levels to an absolute minimum. It’s ideally suited to use in the petrochemical, refinery and natural gas industries.

The Cobra C uses a multi-ported valve so that the extraction process is reduced to the minimum while maintaining the integrity of the sample itself. Installation is fast and straightforward, with quick disconnects ensuring the sample cylinder can be removed with no tools required. The Cobra C is fully LDAR and MACT compliant, while a DOT rated stainless steel cylinder ensures quality, reliability and longevity.

Designed for longevity, the Cobra M liquid sampler boasts a variety of unique features that makes it simpler to install and more convenient to use. Made of stainless steel and other exotic materials, the sampler meets the highest standards of quality and reliability. All of our Cobra M units use the Cobra-designed FLO-THRU sampling valve to facilitate easy regulation. The system also provides ample time for air and other gases to be expelled, ‘clean’ samples are assured.

The Cobra M includes a multi-turn handle that permits precise flow control, while a full bore flow path ensures that no pressure is lost while the sample is being extracted. And because standard units come with our special coaxial needle system, the risk of bent or broken needles is reduced dramatically. Also, our FLO-THRU sampling valve has been specifically designed for process sampling, and protects against contamination to ensure the integrity of every sample taken.

The Cobra CP closed loop sampling system is specifically designed to collect sampling in a constant pressure cylinder in the safest and most efficient way. Ideal for use in specialty gas and light liquid hydrocarbon applications, the Cobra CP is safe for both the operator and environment, providing an emissions-free sampling capability to keep both pollution and sample contamination levels to an absolute minimum. It’s ideally suited to use in the petrochemical, refinery and natural and specialty gas industries.

The Cobra CP sampling system simplifies the process by allowing constant pressure cylinders to be charged within the system. A low-maintenance option, it also allows for easy and quick disconnection ensuring the sample cylinder can be removed with no tools required. It also accommodates dual phase sampling without fear of sample contamination. The Cobra CP is fully LDAR and MACT compliant, while a DOT rated stainless steel cylinder ensures quality, reliability and longevity.

The Cobra DT closed loop sampling system is specifically designed to perform a detector tube measurement in the safest, quickest and most efficient way possible. The key challenges in securing an accurate representative sample are addressed while making the process itself simpler for the operator. Our unique Teflon detector tube makes it easy to insert tubes, while disconnection is kept quick and simple for easy us. The system is ideally suited to use in the petrochemical, and natural and specialty gas industries.

The Cobra DT sampling system is designed with safety in mind, with a high-pressure regulator providing operators with a means to lower pressure to a safe level before inserting the detector tube. And the availability of either 300cc or 500cc collection cylinders means that sample volumes are always sufficient to offer an accurate representative sample. The Cobra DT can be ordered with just the detector tube or with a collection cylinder included.

Cobra HTHV Sampling System

The Cobra HTHV closed loop sampling system is specifically designed to provide a safe sampling method for high-temperature high-viscosity applications, such as hot oil and slurries. Enclosing the system, and allowing the operator to view the process through a viewing window, provides extra safety. Designed to the highest quality standards and to the most precise specifications, the Cobra HTHV sampling system is ideally suited to use in the petrochemical, refinery, chemical and specialty gas industries.

The Cobra HTHV is designed to address the problems that temperature can create when trying to secure accurate representative samples. By steam jacketing the sample loop, the problems of plugging and cold spots are effectively prevented, while the inclusion of a multi-turn valve with a hardened seat means the operator can throttle the sample flow adequately to secure the sample safely.
